Please bottom post on this list - thanks :-)

When in terminal mode try (in order):

$ sudo apt-get install -f
$ sudo dpkg --configure -a
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get upgrade
$ sudo apt-get install --reinstall gnome-panel
$ sudo apt-get install --reinstall gnome-panel-data
$ sudo apt-get install --reinstall gnome-applets
$ sudo apt-get install --reinstall gnome-applets-data
$ sudo apt-get install -f
$ sudo dpkg --configure -a

Also check your .xsession-errors file for other clues:
$ cat ~/.xsession-errors |more
